Subject: [PATCH 4.9 001/264] 9p: missing chunk of "fs/9p: Dont update file type when updating file attributes"

From: Al Viro <viro@...iv.linux.org.uk>

commit b577d0cd2104fdfcf0ded3707540a12be8ddd8b0 upstream.

In commit 45089142b149 Aneesh had missed one (admittedly, very unlikely
to hit) case in v9fs_stat2inode_dotl().  However, the same considerations
apply there as well - we have no business whatsoever to change ->i_rdev
or the file type.
